Is there a way to prep for surgery and avoid this? I can tell when a person has had a tummy tuck by their belly button. Why do they look so different after a tummy tuck? I want my body to look as natural as possible after my mommy makeover and bbl.
Answer: Why do belly buttons look like black holes after a tummy tuck? Properly reconstructed belly buttons do not look like "black holes." They look much more natural. Simple circles or ovoids always look unnatural. The belly button circle must be broken up with a flap from the abdomen to look natural.Thank you for your interesting question, and best wishes.

Answer: Belly buttons after tummy tuck surgery Creating a natural appearing belly button after abdominoplasty is always a goal by good Plastic surgeons. There are several different techniques so this is clearly the "art" rather than the science of tummy tucks. It can be a lot more difficult as you might think. Pregnancy frequently stretches of the base of the belly button, hernias, and just the fact that there is a variety of appearance of belly buttons to begin with, are things that your surgeon must deal with. You can certinly discuss this with your surgeon at your consultation. Good luck.

Answer: Belly Button Art I know what you mean. When I was in training I was taught to make the belly button rather large to make sure that if there was scar contracture it didn't get too tight. But every one of those belly buttons can be seen a mile away at the beach and spotted as "artificial". It's a clear tell tale sign of a tummy tuck.Many of us work hard to avoid that look, but there is nothing a patient can do to improve it - other than choosing the right surgeon. Make sure you see a LOT of before and after photos before deciding who will operate on you.Good Luck!

Answer: Tummy tuck Hello and thank you for your question. The goal for the belly button should be designed to look natural, have an "innie" appearance, and have no scars on the exterior. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person.
